It is highly unlikely that you got pregnant immediately after removal of IUD. The bloating and cramping can be a side effect of IUD removal. Wait to see if you get your periods on expected dates. If you miss your periods wait for 1 week post expected date and do a Urine Pregnancy test or get an Ultrasound done to confirm.
